Field Guide For The Acceptance Of Hot Mix and Bridge Deck Waterproofing

This Field Guide has been prepared by the Bituminous Section of the Materials Engineering and Research Office to provide procedural guidelines to administer contract requirements on Ministry of Transportation projects in Ontario. The purpose of the Guide is to uniformly implement, across the Province, the acceptance procedures for Hot Mix and Bridge Deck Waterproofing.

The report was developed to raise the awareness of staff involved in all stages of a project from the planning and design stages to construction and maintenance, of some of the issues associated with constructing quality longitudinal joints that will perform. This doc is a result of "joint" ministry and industry effort and task group work.
